The fight to win GE labeling in Oregon is in overtime.
The difference between Yes votes and No votes on Measure 92 is less than 5,200 votes – less than half of one percent. We expect that margin to narrow even more.
Ballots can be challenged because the signature on the envelope doesn’t match the voter’s registration card or some other technical reason. Almost always these ballots are legitimate, but don’t count unless the voter corrects whatever the issue is in the next few days.
Remedying thousands of challenged ballots is a huge job. It’s going to take an immediate fundraising surge to support the operation it will take to make sure every ballot is counted.
If ever there were a time to dig deep to support labeling of GE foods, this is it. All ballots must be remedied by 5pm on Tuesday the 18th, giving us only a few days to reach the thousands of voters who need to remedy their challenged ballots.
